THE NATIONAL LEAGUE

The National League is a new soccer league created by Small Sided Soccer Association (SSSA) to facilitate more places to play and more spaces to learn and progress in Small Sided Soccer and is sanctioned by US Club Soccer (read approved Sanctioning Agreement here and read the launch Press Release here).

With various sets of rules and regulations out there, not having consistency can make organizing tournaments challenging. SSSA and The National League are committed to getting Small Sided Soccer on the map. Our goal is to both facilitate recreational leagues for children and youth and deliver adult competitive leagues, whilst consistently raising the bar within soccer center facilities and organization.

Think of SSSA and National League as a lobbyist for the sport. With our passion and love of Small Sided Soccer, we won’t stop, ever. Yet, we can’t make these dreams reality without you; the players, the clubs, the centers, and the fans. Let’s Club together and Get In The Game!
